narutoactor, you're Approved for the positions of Mapper and Spriter.
I couldn't accept you for scripter, as that was a generic edit of the Viridian Old Man.
But you may have to wait a while for your first job, unless you can do OW sprites as well.

NarutoActor · Aug 23, 2009

no I alwayes end up making the overworlds to big :P also I can show you an other script if you want
also if you want I noticed you hack had a lot of boring and blockey maps(no offence) I can fix it for you

I agree, I'm looking at the maps of Shining Opal right now and none of these maps impress me. Zigger Town is heavily edited Pallet Town. I guess the Mikachu thing was creative, but the maps could be a lot better. I mean, Vantrek City only has one house, a gym and the usual Pokecenter+mart. Since this was an edit of Viridian City, why remove a house? Oh and considering you created the best XSE tutorial I've ever seen, it wouldn't hurt to put what you know, onto the hack. I just feel like you aren't putting in what you know. For example this script:

'---------------
#org 0x1A6044
lock
checkflag 0x820
if 0x1 goto 0x81A606C
applymovement 0xFF 0x81A606E
waitmovement 0x0
msgbox 0x81A6072 0x6 '"Wait!\pWasn't there something\nI h..."
applymovement 0xFF 0x81A6070
waitmovement 0x0
release
end

'---------------
#org 0x1A606C
release
end

'---------
' Strings
'---------
#org 0x1A6072
= Wait!\pWasn't there something\nI had to do here\lbefore I left?\pWhat was it...

'-----------
' Movements
'-----------
#org 0x1A606E
#raw 0x62 'Exclamation Mark (!)
#raw 0xFE 'End of Movements

#org 0x1A6070
#raw 0x11 'Step Up (Normal)
#raw 0xFE 'End of Movements

Theres no fun or storyline behind that. This is a basic script anyone can make. You should be making advanced 200+ line scripts by now like me. Or at least more than 100 lines. It needs flavor. :)
(Before you post a reply please know I don't have anything against you and your hack and I think your tut is the best I've ever seen. I just think your hack can improve greatly in pretty much all aspects...scripting, mapping, storyline, features, tiles. Sorry if I sounded like a jerk, I just had to get that out. O_o)

One of the reasons that I'm taking so long for Beta 3 is for that reason, actually. I'm revamping most of the game's scripts and whatnot.
And, no, I don't think that you sounded like a jerk. I needed that morality boost. :P
